[QUOTE="CBH Australia, post: 2210443, member: 116486"] I hope it goes ok. I thought that they turn a barrel between centres to reduce the diameter only on the section to be wrapped leaving a solid section each end from the original barrel with a shoulder to wrap up too. Eg they just profile a section in the middle. When the Smith done my IBI carbon fibre barrel he recrowned it as he wanted to tick all the boxes. When I collected it he showed where there is a fine black line where he said is C/f and where they Press got the cap on the muzzle end. I said what I just explained. He said I don't know how they are made, I said for all I have read they do turn it down between shoulders. But I can see the line so I hope I don't find a press fit muzzle collar come loose down the track. I haven't shot it enough. Any good luck with yours and I hope it is as good as a new one and still shoots as it should. [/QUOTE]
